Blessed
Composer(s): Paul Simon
Performer(s): Simon & Garfunkel



Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit
Blessed is the lamb whose blood flows
Blessed are the sat upon 
Spat upon 
Ratted on
O Lord, Why have you forsaken me?
I got no place to go
I've walked around Soho for the last night or so
Ah, but it doesn't matter, no

Blessed is the land and the kingdom
Blessed is the man whose soul belongs to
Blessed are the meth drinkers 
Pot sellers
Illusion dwellers
O Lord, Why have you forsaken me?
My words trickle down, like a wound
That I have no intention to heal

Blessed are the stained glass, window pane glass
Blessed is the church service makes me nervous
Blessed are the penny rookers 
Cheap hookers
Groovy lookers
O Lord, Why have you forsaken me?
I have tended my own garden
Much too long

Bless Your Beautiful Hide
Composer(s): Gene de Paul; Johnny Mercer
Performer(s): Howard Keel
and various other artists



Bless your beautiful hide, wherever you may be
We ain't met yet but I'm a-willing to bet
You're the gal for me

Bless your beautiful hide
You're just as good as lost
I don't know your name but I'm a-stakin' my claim
Lest your eyes is crossed

Oh, I'd swap my gun and I'd swap my mule
Though whoever took it would be one big fool
Or pay your way through cookin' school
If'n you would say I Do

Bless your beautiful hide, prepare to bend your knee
And take that vow 'cause I'm a-tellin' you now
You're the gal for me

Pretty and trim but kinda slim
Heavenly eyes but, oh, that size
She's gotta be right to be the bride for me
Bless your beautiful hide, wherever you may be

Pretty and trim but not too slim
Heavenly eyes and just the right size
Simple and sweet, and sassy as can be!
Bless her beautiful hide
Yes, she's the gal for me

Bless You
Composer(s): Barry Mann; Cynthia Weil
Performer(s): Tony Orlando



Every time I faced the world I just had to cry-y-y
I stood alone with no love of my own
But then you happened by

Oh, darlin', bless you
Bless every breath that you take (bless you)
Yeah-ah-ah, bless ev'ry move that you make so perfectly (ooh-ooh)
And bless your little heart for lovin' me (bless you)
Ooh (bless you), bless you (bless you), bless you (bless you), child

Till you smiled and took my hand I felt kinda small
But you stood by me for the whole world to see
And then I was ten feet tall

Oh, darlin', bless you
Bless every breath that you take (bless you)
Mm-mm-mm, bless ev'ry move that you make so perfectly (ooh-ooh)
And bless your little heart for lovin' me (bless you, bless you)

Oh, darlin', bless you
Bless every breath that you take (bless you)
Baby, bless ev'ry move that you make so perfectly (ooh-ooh)
And bless your little heart for lovin' me

Baby, bless you
Bless every breath that you take (bless you)
Yeah-ah-ah, bless ev'ry move that you make so perfectly

And bless your little heart for lovin' me

Bless You
Composer(s): John Lennon
Originally performed by: John Lennon



Bless you wherever you are
Windswept child on a shooting star
Restless Spirits depart
Still we're deep in each other's hearts

Some people say it's over
Now that we spread our wings
But we know better darling
The hollow ring is only last year's echo

Bless you whoever you are
Holding her now
Be warm and kind hearted
And remember though love is strange
Now and forever our love will remain

Bless This House
Composer(s): Helen Taylor; May H. Brahe
Performer(s): Perry Como
and various other artists



Bless this house, Oh Lord we pray
Make it safe by night and day
Bless these walls so firm and stout
Keeping want and trouble out

Bless the roof and chimneys tall
Let thy peace lie over all
Bless this door that it may prove
Ever open to joy and love

(Bless these windows shining bright)
(Letting in God’s heavenly light)
Bless the hearth, a-blazing there
With smoke ascending like a prayer

Bless the people here within
Keep them pure and free from sin
Bless us all that we may be
Fit Oh Lord to dwell with thee
Bless us all that we, one day, may dwell
Oh Lord, we pray

Bless The Beasts And Children

Performer(s): The Carpenters
and various other artists



Bless the beasts and the children
For in this world they have no voice
They have no choice

Bless the beasts and the children
For the world can never be
The world they see

Light their way
When the darkness surrounds them
Give them light
Let it shine all around them

Bless the beasts and the children
Give them shelter from the storm
Keep them safe
Keep them warm
Keep them safe

Light their way
When the darkness surrounds them
Give them light
Let it shine all around them

Bless the beasts and the children
Give them shelter from the storm
Keep them safe
Keep them warm
Keep them safe

Bless His Soul
Composer(s): Jermaine Jackson; Michael Jackson;
Randy Jackson; Tito Jackson
Performer(s): The Jacksons



I try to do what's right for me
But no one sees the way I see
And then I try to please them so
But how far can this pleasing go
Something's soon to come over you
You just can't please the world and yourself
You gotta start doing what's right for you
'Cause life is being happy yourself
Then you should bless his soul
It's hard to find
A person like you
You're one of a kind
If I were you, I'd change my mind
And start living for me in these changing times
Sometimes I cry ,cause I'm confused
Is this a fact of being used
There is no life for me at all
'Cause I give myself at beck and call
Something's soon to come over you
You just can't please the world and yourself
You gotta start doing what's right for you
'Cause life is being happy yourself
Then you should bless his soul
It's hard to find
A person like you
You're one of a kind
If I were you, I'd change my mind
And start living for me in these changing times
The life you're leading is dangerous
It's so dangerous, dangerous all
The life you're leading is dangerous
Doggone dangerous, dangerous, dangerous
Something's soon to come over you
You just can't please the world and yourself
You gotta start being what's right for you
'Cause life is being happy yourself
Then you should bless his soul
It's hard to find
A person like you
You're one of a kind
People will cry
If rain or sun
Try to please all
And you've pleased none

Blender Blues
Performer(s): Bonnie Raitt



Let me be your blender, baby
Don’t ya know I can whip, chop and puree
Won’t you let me be your blender, baby
Honey, I can whip, chop and puree
I’m gonna whip you to a jelly honey
I’m gonna chop it up today

Model is so special, honey
Gives you everything you need
Guaranteed to blend it right
It’s built for comfort, not for speed
My motor’s most unique
There’s a style for every size
You push the right track, honey
Sit back and watch me Osterize

Let me be your blender, baby
I can whip, chop, grate, cube and puree
I’m gonna whip you to a jelly
I’m gonna chop you up today

If you bring the right ingredients
I’ll make any sauce you choose
I’ll hollandaise or mayonnaise
Any recipe you use
I can whip some waffle batter
I can blend some dough for buns
And if we get done blending
We might even get some cooking done

Let me be your blender, baby
I got a cookbook all my own
I call it a thousand and one ways, baby
to make my little motor moan

Start off slow and easy, honey
I get up to a fine puree
You work those gears just right
We’ll make a real love soufflé
My motor never quits
I don’t know how long you’re gonna last
If you don’t want your cubes diced, honey
You’d better push that button fast

Let me be your blender, baby
I whip the freshest cream in town
Don’t you know what they’re saying about me, baby
Can’t no one bear my Waring down

Bleeker Street
Performer(s): Simon & Garfunkel



Fog's rollin' in off the East River bank
Like a shroud it covers Bleeker Street
Fills the alleys where men sleep
Hides the shepherd from the sheep

Voices leaking from a sad cafe
Smiling faces try to understand
I saw a shadow touch a shadow's hand
On Bleeker Street

A poet reads his crooked rhyme
Holy, holy is his sacrament
Thirty dollars pays your rent
On Bleeker Street

I heard a church bell softly chime
In a melody sustainin'
It's a long road to Canaan
On Bleeker Street
Bleeker Street

Blazing Saddles
Composer(s): Boris Blank; Dieter Meier
Performer(s): Yello



The summertime has gone
You'll never ever be alone

You are my sun
All the strangers in time
Please call me later tonight
'Cause I'm waiting for love
The summertime has gone
You'll never ever be alone

You are my sun
In the darkness of time
The night is so long
You'll never ever be alone

The summertime has gone
You'll never ever be alone

When you are crying
And the moon starts to shine
Please take my hand
Into the ocean of love
The summertime has gone
You'll never ever be alone

When you are smiling
And the moon starts to shine
'Cause tonight is so long
You'll never ever be alone

The summer night has gone
You'll never ever be alone

You are my sun
All the strangers in time
Please call me later tonight
Cause I'm waiting for love
The summertime has gone
You'll never ever be alone

You are my sun
In the darkness of night
The night is so long
You'll never ever be alone

Blazing Saddles
Composer(s): Mel Brooks; John Morris
Performer(s): Frankie Laine;
City of Prague Philharmonic Orch.; Ennio Morricone



He rode a blazing saddle
He wore a shining star
His job to offer battle
To bad men near and far
He conquered fear and he conquered hate
He turned our night into day
He made his blazing saddle
A torch to light the way

When outlaws rule the West
And fear fills the land
A cry went up for a man with guts
To take the West in hand
They needed a man who was brave and true
With justice for all as his aim
Then out of the sun rode a man with a gun
And Bart was his name, yes Bart was his name

Blanket On The Ground
Performer(s): Billy Jo Spears



Come and look out through the window
That big old moon is shining down
Tell me now, don´t it remind you
Of the blanket on the ground 

Remember back when love first found us
And we go sleeping out of town
And we love beneath the moonlight
On the blanket on the ground 

I´ll get the blanket from the bedroom 
And we´ll go walking once again
To that spot down by the river
Where our sweet love first began 
Just because we are married
Don´t mean we can´t slip around 
So let´s walk out through the moonlight
And lay the blanket on the ground 

Oh I remember how excited
We used to get when love was young
That old moon was our best buddy
We couldn´t wait for night to come

Now you know you still excite me
I know you love me like I am 
Just once more I wish you´d love me
On the blanket on the ground 

I´ll get the blanket from the bedroom
And we´ll go walking once again
To that spot down by the river
Where our sweet love first began
Just because we are married
Don´t mean we can´t slip around
So let´s walk out through the moonlight
And lay the blanket on the ground 

Mhhm 

I´ll get the blanket from the bedroom
And we´ll go walking once again
To that spot down by the river
Where our sweet love first began
Just because we are married
Don´t mean we can´t slip around 
So let´s walk out through the moonlight
And lay the blanket on the ground
So let´s walk out in the moonlight
And lay the blanket on the ground

Blanket For A Sail
Composer(s): Harry Nilsson
Performer(s): Harry Nilsson



Way out on the ocean
Far beyond the seven seas
There's a tiny little boat
Faith is keeping her afloat
And a tiny little skipper with his worn and tattered coat
You see the law of the ocean
Days yuo shall never fail
Use your heart as a rudder
Faith as a compass
And a blanket for a sail
Sleep for the weary
Dreams for us all
Rest your head on a pillow
And i'll tell you a tale
Use your heart as a blanket
And a blanket foer a sail
Row, row, row your boat gently through a dream
Way out on the ocean
Far beyond the seven seas
There's a tiny little boat
Faith is keeping her afloat
And a tiny little skipper with his worn and tattered coat
You see the law of the ocean
Days yuo shall never fail
Use your heart as a rudder
Faith as a compass
And a blanket for a sail

Blank Generation
Composer(s): Richard Hell
Performer(s): Richard Hell & the Voidoids
and various other artists



I was sayin' let me out of here before I was
even born--it's such a gamble when you get a face
It's fascinatin to observe what the mirror does
but when I dine it's for the wall that I set a place

I belong to the blank generation and
I can take it or leave it each time
I belong to the ______ generation but
I can take it or leave it each time

Triangles were fallin at the window as the doctor cursed
He was a cartoon long forsaken by the public eye
The nurse adjusted her garters as I breathed my first
The doctor grabbed my throat and yelled, "God's consolation prize!"

I belong to the blank generation and
I can take it or leave it each time
I belong to the ______ generation but
I can take it or leave it each time

To hold the t.v. to my lips, the air so packed with cash
then carry it up flights of stairs and drop it in the vacant lot
To lose my train of thought and fall into your arms' tracks
and watch beneath the eyelids every passing dot

I belong to the blank generation and
I can take it or leave it each time
I belong to the ______ generation but
I can take it or leave it each time

I belong to the blank generation and
I can take it or leave it each time
I belong to the ______ generation but
I can take it or leave it each time top

Something Is Happening
((Adapted from: Luglio (by Riccardo Del Turco) - 1968))
((French Version: Le Petit Pain Au Chocolat (by Joe Dassin) - 1968))
Composer(s): Riccardo Del Turco - Giancarlo Bigazzi - Jack Fishman
Performer(s): Herman's Hermits - 1968



Something is happening
And it started happening when you walked by
Something is happening
And it's changing everything do you know why?

As soon as you started to kiss me
Something new suddenly hit me
Love walked over, it's always happening
The same sort of things to others too
Something is happening to me
And I only hope the same thing is happening to you

Something is happening
Exiting, bewildering you must know why
Something is happening
I can't think of anything but you and I

What begins, these happy notions
You do things to my emotions
I can't help whatever is happening
There's nothing about it I can do
Something is happening to me
And I only hope the same thing is happening to you

What begins, these happy notions
You do things to my emotions
I can't help whatever is happening
There's nothing about it I can do
Something is happening to me
And I only hope the same thing is happening to you

What begins, these happy notions
You do things to my emotions
I can't help whatever is happening
There's nothing about it I can do
Something is happening to me
And I only hope the same thing is happening to you

(Oooooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-aah-aah)
(Oooooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-aah-aah)

This is a story of a boy and a girl
How they both lived together
In there own private world
The boy's name was Billy
The girl's name was Blanche
Once it happened, one day they took a chance

I took a walk one day with Blanche
Along the avenue of love and romance
And I decided that I'd take chance
Just to see how happy life would be (Life would be)
If only Blanche and me

We strolled apart one afternoon
But our parting came a little too soon
And now I'm dreaming of Blanche by the Moon
She's the girl for me
(She's the girl for me)

Can't you see that I love her
What more can I ask from heaven above
If I lose her, I lose my own, my only love

Now there is something that you can't deny
Love is something that money cannot buy
And now I'm dreaming of Blanche by the Moon
Shes the girl for me-ee-ee-eeee

She's the girl for me
(She's the girl for me)

Blame The Weather
Composer(s): Colin Moulding
Performer(s): XTC



When your love's flown out the window
And the pain comes through the door
Once again you've missed the boat
And you're stranded on the shore
And you find out that what you had
Was never yours at all
Friends and lovers that you knew so well
Will never take your calls

So
You blame the weather
Oh-oh
Blame the weather
Oh-oh
Blame the weather
Oh-oh
Can't you see you're in your prime?
You're turning creases into lines

If you play the game
You've got to be prepared to take a knock
You get put down so many times
But you keep on getting up
So put your tears away
And don't forget to worry is a crime
Nothing bears thinking about too much
You'll be old before your time

So
You blame the weather
Oh-oh
Blame the weather
Oh-oh
Blame the weather
Oh-oh
Can't you see you're in your prime?
You're turning creases into lines

The pool of tears you left to drown in
The helping hands that never came
The years you lost out to another
All up in flames

So
You blame the weather
Oh-oh
Blame the weather
Oh-oh
Blame the weather
Oh-oh
Can't you see you're in your prime?

Where has my love gone?
How can I go on?
It seems dear love has gone away

Where is my spirit?
I’m nowhere near it
Oh yes, my love has gone astray

But I’ll blame it on the sun
The sun that didn’t shine
I’ll blame it on the wind and the trees

I’ll blame it on the time that never was enough
I’ll blame it on the tide and the sea
But, my heart blames it on me

Who poured the love out?
What made this bitter doubt?
Is peace not here for me to see?

Wish I could tell you
But, words won’t come for me to speak

But I’ll blame it on the sun
That didn’t fill the sky
I’ll blame it on the birds and the trees

I’ll blame it on the day that ended once too soon
I’ll blame it on the nights that could not be
But, my heart blames it on me

yeh, yeh, yeh, ooh
Your heart blames it on you this time

Blame It On The Stones
Composer(s): Kris Kristofferson
Performer(s): Kris Kristofferson



Mister Marvin Middle Class is really in a stew
Wond'rin' what the younger generation's coming to
And the taste of his martini doesn't please his bitter tongue
Blame it on the Rolling Stones

Blame it on the Stones; blame it on the Stones
You'll feel so much better, knowing you don't stand alone
Join the accusation; save the bleeding nation
Get it off your shoulders; blame it on the Stones

Mother tells the ladies at the bridge club every day
Of the rising price of tranquilizers she must pay
And she wonders why the children never seem to stay at home
Blame it on the Rolling Stones

Blame it on the Stones; Blame it on the Stones
You'll feel so much better, knowing you don't stand alone
Join the accusation; save the bleeding nation
Get it off your shoulders; blame it on the Stones

Father's at the office, nightly working all the time
Trying to make the secretary change her little mind
And it bothers him to read about so many broken homes
Blame it on those Rolling Stones

Blame it on the Stones; Blame it on the Stones
You'll feel so much better knowing you don't stand alone
Join the accusation; same the bleeding nation
Get it off your shoulders; blame it on the Stones

Blame it on the stones, blame it on the stones
